Chapter1329
The two men had already found their hiding place.
Ellinor was about to bolt with Sophia in tow, but they didn’t even manage to take a step.
Sophia held her hand tight, refusing to run.
Frowning, Ellinor turned back and said urgently, “What are you doing? Run!”
But Sophia still held on to Ellinor, shaking her head.
“Ellinor, let’s not run. You’re pregnant, we’d never outrun them.”
Ellinor was at a loss for words. “So what do you suggest we do?”
While Ellinor was still surprised, Sophia led her out in front of the two men.
She feigned ignorance and said, “Sorry, we were just passing by. We didn’t mean to disturb you guys. We apologize if we caused any inconvenience. If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave you to your search.”
The chubby one blocked their way and looked them up and down. “Just passing by? You two ladies just happen to be passing by in the middle of the night?”
“Uh… we…”
“We really had to use the bathroom and couldn’t find one on our way. So we came to this secluded place. We didn’t expect anyone to be here.” Ellinor replied for Sophia, but she kept her head down, avoiding eye contact with the men.
The bathroom?
The fat man let out a mocking laugh when he heard this excuse.
The skinny man, however, approached Ellinor and said coldly, “You, look up.”
Ellinor didn’t move.
The skinny man seemed impatient. He drew a gun from his waist and pointed it at her chin, forcing her to look up.
As the man saw Ellinor’s face, she also saw his.
The tall and thin man had silver–gray hair, a piercing in his left ear, and a cold, wicked look in his eyes.
He held the gun to Ellinor’s chin with one hand and had a flashlight in the other, shining it on her face. He looked at her for a while and then said with a smile, “So it’s you! Theo’s well–hidden wife.”
Ellinor didn’t understand why the man with the silver hair would call her that. She simply said, “Sir, you have the wrong person. I’m not Theo’s wife”
The man with the silver–gray hair jabbed her harder with the gun. “Stop pretending! I know you, you’re his wife.”
Ellinor said calmly, “You’re mistaken. I’m not his wife. She is! She’s the one who married Theo. If you have any grudges, you should take them up with her
As she spoke, she pointed at Sophia, standing next to her.
Sophia was taken aback and then looked resentful. “Ellinor, how could you at a time like this.__?”
In fact, from the moment Sophia brought her out, Ellinor remembered who this man with the silver–gray hair was.
When she first met Theo, she was once kidnapped.
The man who orchestrated that kidnapping was this very man with the silver–gray hair and the earring in his left ear.
